Summary

Boles Middle is a public middle school located in Quinlan, Texas, serving grades 5-8 with a total enrollment of 172 students. The school is part of the Boles Independent School District, which is ranked 338 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Boles Middle has shown mixed academic performance compared to the state averages. While the school's proficiency rates in STAAR Reading are lower than the state, its performance in STAAR Mathematics is significantly below the state averages. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with lower rankings for female, Hispanic, and white students, as well as students from low socioeconomic backgrounds and those identified as gifted and talented. However, the school has performed better for special education students, ranking in the top half of Texas middle schools in this category. Boles Middle has maintained a very low dropout rate, which is significantly better than the state average.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Caddo Mills Middle, Boles Middle generally performs worse academically, with lower proficiency rates in STAAR Reading and Mathematics. The school's high per-student spending of $13,172 in the 2020-2021 school year, compared to the nearby schools' range of $7,709 to $11,173 per student, suggests that the school may not be effectively allocating resources to improve student outcomes. To address these challenges, the school and Boles Independent School District should consider implementing targeted interventions, professional development for teachers, and strategies to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
